PHP - Get Date And Time Separately
$date=2010-11-01 23:45:09
How do I create one variable to output Monday November 1 and another variable to display 11:45:09 PM from the above variable. Similar TutorialsHey guys, How would I go about subtracting Today from a previous day to find the difference? For example, I want to subtract TODAY from a previous date in my database, to determine if the difference is greater than 1 day. Any ideas? I tried doing the subraction in TIMESTAMPS, but when I convert the date back to Y-m-d H:i:s, I got some weird year and time. PHP date and time function is not showing correct time on my local system I have the following php code date_default_timezone_set("Africa/Lagos"); $date = date('d-m-y h:i:s'); echo "Server Time ".$date ."<br>"; echo "The time is " . date("h:i:sa")."<br>"; $current_datetime = date("Y-m-d") . ' ' . date("H:i:s", STRTOTIME(date('h:i:sa'))); echo "Current time1: ".$current_datetime . "<br>";
Output
Server Time 21-05-21 09:55:39
Expected Output
Server Time 21-05-21 10:55:39
Any help would be appreciated. Edited May 21 by Ponel I am having a problem with PHP displaying the correct date and time. It updates as it should, but is fast by 4min and is always displaying a date in 2004. I ran a basic php script to make sure the application im using itself is not wrong. go to lunenburgledger.com/time.php Anybody had any ideas on where to check? The system time on the Windows Server 2003 is correct. The only thing I can think of is that it was converted to a virtual machine on vmware esxi, but the system time stayed right. Any ideas? Thanks! OK So I've got a datepicker that sends a date in d/m/y format. My DB stores the data in Unix Timestamp Which I can convert the date to with strtotime however this does the exact date & time. All I want is the actual day. I've spent hours trying to convert this with just the day with mixed results... Thanks. I have a field set as datetime and want to compare that field to see if it is older then ten minutes. Can anyone help I am having a brain fart? Hey, I need help with date, I have stored dates in my table in this format: i.e. 22.10.2011 but now use timestamp to store dates. Problem is with this query the WHERE clause will find dates in the old format and I want to change that to the new format. Code: [Select] for($i = $count; $i > 0; $i--) { $day = date("d.m.Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"), date("d") - $i, date("Y"))); $tmp = mysql_fetch_array(safe_query("SELECT count FROM ".PREFIX."counter_stats WHERE dates LIKE '%".$day."'")); $array[] = $tmp['count'] ? $tmp['count'] : 0; } Am I making sense ? Hi! The below dropdown will show dates/times every 15 minutes from 12am to 11:45pm for only 1 day. I want it to show for 5 days, anyway I can do this? Below code: Code: [Select] $start = strtotime('12:00am'); $end = strtotime('11:45pm'); echo '<select name="time">'; for ($i = $start; $i <= $end; $i += 900) { echo '<option>' . date('F j, Y, \a\t g:i a', $i); } echo '</select>'; Thanks for any help. I have a batch script that reads from a timestamp.txt file to determine the last time it ran and I need to modify that by two hours. What happens is the script will run to look for changes in the county records and their server time is two hours different from mine. Code: [Select] $fr=fopen("xml/timestamp.txt",'r'); $mydate=fread($fr, 50); if ($incremental_updates == 1){ $default_template_file="xml/incremental_template.xml"; $default_config_name="xml/incremental.xml"; $contest=file_get_contents($default_template_file); $contest=str_replace("{DATE_TAG}", $mydate, $contest); $f=fopen($default_config_name,'w+'); fwrite($f, $contest); fclose($f); fclose($fr); $fw=fopen("xml/timestamp.txt",'w'); fwrite($fw, substr(date('c'), 0, 19)); fclose($fw); }else{ $default_config_name = "xml/full_update.xml"; } I tried making a time stamp update look like $cur_timestamp=date("Y-m-d H:i:s", time() +14400); which is correct but it doesn't write to the text file properly. Using the above fwrite($fw, substr(date('c'), 0, 19)); I get the correct results in the timestamp.txt file for my server time. I need it to be +14400 2011-05-25T08:27:51 would essentially become 2011-05-25T10:27:51 when it writes to the timestamp.txt I hope that makes sense. J What is the best way to insert this time stamp into mysql? This is the info I want... Example: Sunday, 28.1.11, 9:56 How would I also select time from the database using mysql? Hey, I need help with my date & time string. I need to edit it do show in a string + also use it for calculating things like when the date has passed. The string is like this: Code: [Select] <?php $string = '2011-01-01 00:00 AM'; ?> So i wanted to check if there was a function that can automatically convert it, so it would say for example: Quote Sunday, 1st of January 2011 00:00 AM But at the same time compare $string against server time to see if the date has expired? Hope you can help I'm trying to pull data from a mysql db. I've stored data on the mysql with the date/time property. So How can I pull the mysql data by date/time? Hi, I am new to this forum as of now. I have a question which probably has a very straightforward answer but I just can't solve it. I am using mysql and have the following code: while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($result)) { $time1=date("j F Y G: i", $row[1]); echo "<tr><td>$row[email]</td>"; echo "<td>$time1</td>"; echo "<td>$row[comment]</td></tr>"; } It is the first line in the curly brackets that is causing the problem. If I replace $row[1] with $time I get today's date/time. But I need the date/time from what has been input so that won't work. Can anyone explain to me what is wrong with my code please? It gives the following error message: Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in C:\xampp\htdocs Thanks very much hi all, i have a script that im trying to add the @ sign after the date. code: Code: [Select] <td align='left' class='forumheader3' nowrap>".(($wardate == -1) ? "" : date($conf['formatdetails'], $wardate))."</td> resulting in this: Code: [Select] 1 Apr 2012 21:30 but i am trying to get the @ after the date so the result would be this: Code: [Select] 1 Apr 2012 @ 21:30 any help please I'm having some trouble understanding how to use date and time when updating my database. The table is already populated with Date and Time fields in date and time format. I need to update the table based on the date and time, but I can't make it work. I tested all the variables and they are being sent correctly. I'm pretty sure the problem lies in how I'm trying to match the Date and Time fields with $dateID and $timeID in the WHERE part of the query, but I'm not sure how to fix that! Code: [Select] <?php include("opendatabase.php"); $size = count($_POST['player1']); $i=0; $thisyear = date("Y"); while ($i < $size) { $dateID = $_POST['date'][$i]; $timeID = $_POST['time'][$i]; $player1 = ($_POST['player1'][$i]); $player2 = ($_POST['player2'][$i]); $player3 = ($_POST['player3'][$i]); $player4 = ($_POST['player4'][$i]); $player5 = ($_POST['player5'][$i]); mysql_query(" UPDATE Daysheets$thisyear SET Player1='$player1', Player2='$player2', Player3='$player3', Player4='$player4', Player5='$player5' WHERE Date = '$dateID' AND Time = '$timeID' "); $i++; } header("Location: /teetimes/publicteetimes.php?teetimedate=$dateID"); mysql_close($con) ?>Any help appreciated! I should also mention that whenever I run this query it erases anything that was previously entered in the database except the date and time columns... hi, I have some code that deals with sending out reminders for appointments due the following day. So if today is the 21/3 then only reminders for appointments due on the 22/3 should be sent. Currently this isn't happening... If reminders are sent on 21/3 at 9.50 am, my code adds 24 hours to this datetime and sends reminders due for all appointments that fall bewteen 21/3 9.50am and 22/3 9.49 am. What I want to do is simply send all reminders for appointments that are on the 22/3 exclusive of time. I'm not sure how do this in php, which uses the unix datetime format to mildy complicate issues anhy help or solutions would be massive, thanks.how to Code: [Select] $days = time() + (1 * (60 * 60 * 24)); $apts = $db->fetch_all('status = 1 AND time > ? AND time < ?', array(time(), $days)); I'm looking to enter the current time and date into a mysql database using php. My current code looks like this: Code: [Select] $now = date("m/d/y",time()); I then insert $now into the table into a datetime column. This all works but the time when read from the column appears as 0000-00-00 00:00:00. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance. Are time zones when calling the date function automatically decided based on where you live? Or is that something that I have to implement--Because the time is wrong according to my time zone. the TIMESTAMP from mysql returns in this format: 2012-04-20 14:25:50 How could I rearrange this with PHP to read as: 04/20/2012 14:25 Thanks I'm trying to make $time be a variable with the current time and I want it to have the same format as mysql. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong here Wrror: Warning: date_format() expects parameter 1 to be DateTime, integer given Code: [Select] $time = date_format(time(),'Y-m-d H:i:s'); |
